A good deal has been lately written upon the subject of di¬ 
viding Boses into classes for the purpose of exhibition, making 
classes of Hybrid Perpetuals, Tea and Moss Boses. We trust 
that this will not be done: we have seen stands of the two 
latter, and they certainly did not show to advantage; while we 
fear great sameness would be the result if the Hybrid Perpe¬ 
tuals were exhibited by themselves, and they were deprived of 
those beautiful contrasts that are afforded by the lovely and 
delicately-tinted Teas and Noisettes, as well as by the lighter- 
coloured Bourbons. Bose exhibitions have made such rapid 
progress, that it will be well, we think, for a while “to let well 
enough alone.” 
Mr. Charles Wood describes Baron de BSthschild as “ a most 
brilliant crimson-scarlet, very large and very double, with fine 
guard-petals of great substance, first-rate form, and in my 
opinion one of the finest new Boses of the season.” The very 
accurate figure of Mr. Andrews will, we trust, fully confirm the 
opinion thus given by one of our first rose-growers.
